Artificial Grass for Golborne Gardens
A lot of the artificial grass we fit in Golborne goes into two kinds of garden: shaded terraced yards where real grass has never grown well, and busy family gardens where dogs and kids have beaten the lawn into mud by the back end of the year. In both, a well-fitted artificial lawn solves the problem for good, green in January, no mowing in July.
We cover Golborne and the surrounding area: Bank Heath, Park Road, Stone Cross, Lowton, Lowton Common and beyond (WA3).

What’s Included
The install is what separates a lawn that lasts from one that doesn’t. We take out the old surface, build a compacted free-draining base, fit a weed membrane and secure the turf edge to edge so it stays flat and taut. Golborne’s heavy local soil makes that base work non-negotiable. Skip it and water sits.
- Full excavation and compacted sub-base, never laid over old turf
- Weed membrane and free-draining base as standard
- Pet-friendly and child-friendly grass options
- Grass stretched taut and fixed securely at every edge
- Neat trims and hidden joints against paving and borders
- Old lawn and spoil removed and disposed of

You’ll see it quoted online as a price per square metre, but the real figure depends on the size of the area, the grass you choose and how much groundwork is needed. The grass itself varies a fair bit in price between budget and premium ranges. We quote per job after a free site visit, so you get an exact written price before anything starts.
Yes, it’s one of the most common reasons people have fake grass fitted. Dog urine drains through the backing and sub-base, and any mess lifts off easily and can be rinsed with water. We can recommend harder-wearing grasses for gardens with big or energetic dogs.
